ENHYPEN is coming back. They have won major music award trophies such as the '2025 MAMA' and have become the 'next generation K-POP leaders.' Today (15th), according to their agency BELIFT LAB, ENHYPEN's 7th mini album 'THE SIN: VANISH' will be released on January 16, 2026, at 2 PM. This album is their first in about six months and opens a new series themed around 'sin' called 'THE SIN.' BELIFT LAB introduced it as dealing with absolute taboos that are stigmatized in the 'vampire society' that serves as the background for ENHYPEN's album story. A story of a vampire lover who chooses to escape to protect their love has been teased. Following the intriguing narrative of their 6th mini album 'DESIRE: UNLEASH,' which sang about the desire to turn a loved one into a vampire, expectations are rising. ENHYPEN has built album stories based on a dark fantasy worldview. The boys standing at the boundary of a new world meet their destined partner 'you,' experiencing crises amid love, sacrifice, and desire, and maturing in the process. Their visual concepts and intense performances, which are highly immersive and suitable for the grand stories of each album, have been impressive. Additionally, ENHYPEN continuously challenges various genres, expanding their musical spectrum while garnering praise from many and critics alike. Including their 2nd full album 'ROMANCE: UNTOLD,' which became a triple million seller, the total cumulative shipment of the albums they have released so far exceeds 20 million copies. Especially after significantly expanding their global influence through performances at the largest music festival in America, 'Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival,' solo concerts in Japan, and their world tour 'WALK THE LINE,' there is great interest in this album. Pre-orders for ENHYPEN's 7th mini album 'THE SIN: VANISH' began today (15th) at 11 AM, and they will hold a fan showcase at 8 PM on the release day at the Korea University Pajong Gymnasium in Seongbuk District, Seoul. This showcase is also scheduled to be streamed live online.
